Santa Clara, Recent FormThe Santa Clara squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 1-0 away defeat against Arouca, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. During that encounter they had 41% possession and had 4 attempts on goal with 0 on target, while their opponents hit 4 of their 9 shots on goal.
Manager Jorge Simão will be looking to hit the reset button after his team's terrible performances in their last 6 games, having scored only 3 goals, conceded 12, and picked up a meagre 2 points. There are concerning signs for them, having failed to score in 4 of their last 6 league games. Simão will be concerned about his leaky defence after they have failed to keep a clean sheet at home for 9 games in a row.
Results wise, their recent poor run of form has left them without a win in 7 games.
On an individual basis, Gabriel Silva will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Santa Clara's last 6 league games.
Famalicão, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Famalicão players having failed to take any points away from their recent 1-0 home defeat at the hands of Gil Vicente. They came away from that fixture with a 59% share of the possession and clocked up 16 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Gil Vicente, who managed 16 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
It's fair to say that manager João Pedro Sousa will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 10 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. Chalking up goals on the road is something their fans have become accustomed to, with them hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win. So far this season, the bulk of their league games on the road have ended in disappointment, having won just 1 of their first 10 away games.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Santa Clara, losing 1-0 to Famalicão.
Famalicenses will be looking to extend their current run of 4 clean sheets against Santa Clara. Playing at home in the league, Santa Clara have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 3 matches against Famalicenses. Goals come easy for Famalicão when they travel to Os Açoreanos, having recorded 6 goals in their past 3 visits and an impressive average of 2 goals per match. The Famalicão defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit Os Açoreanos in the league, with Famalicão conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
When playing at home, Santa Clara have lost the last 3 times they've faced Famalicão in the league and have failed to win any of their last 3 encounters.
With only Tomás Domingos (Muscle) and Marco Pereira (Hamstring) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Jorge Simão will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
Famalicão manager João Pedro Sousa has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
